A contemporary governance challenge for governments concerns the biogas domain: what incentives and policies can lead to a viable biogas economy? To support addressing this challenge, a prototype of a simulator is constructed in which horizontal governance is applied in a multi-stakeholder context. This paper reports on the modelling and knowledge acquisition that led to the development of that prototype...
This paper proposes an experimental evaluation of the communication in an Organization-based Multi-Agent System. We defined a set of criteria to evaluate the quality of interactions between agents at run time. The originalities and the advantages of our proposal are threefold: (1) the adaptation of a set of criteria and their corresponding metrics to evaluate communication in an Organization-based...
Through presented paper, we provide a simple negotiation model in a multi-agent system, where every agent has incomplete set of information about all other agents. Agents in our algorithm collaborate with other agents for optimizing the final solution while preserving their individual privacies. Agents implement the idea of collaboration by sharing their profits with other agents. Therefore an agent...
Cloud computing services are rapidly gaining popularity with more and more businesses actively migrating to the cloud, and many new cloud providers emerging. In such circumstances, there is a need for a market platform that allows for automated trading of cloud services between numerous independent users. Therefore, in this paper we propose Smart Cloud Marketplace (SCM) as a platform for trading cloud...
Negotiation is a fundamental mechanism in multi-agent systems since it allows self-interested agents to come to mutual agreements and to distribute resources efficiently and effectively. However, in competitive situations, the agents need to negotiate repeatedly with one another, thus developing mechanisms that are effective over repeated interactions is a key challenge. At present, few research work...
